      <description>The second draft of &lt;a

ODR &lt;/a&gt;
is out. Comments are welcome and solicited
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; project name: online disk replicator (aka odr)
&lt;li&gt; Aim: odr allows to share (read/write) a block device
among several nodes.
  if the fs does the locking, several nodes can mount the
device at the 
  time. if nodes fail, the remaining ones try not to
interupt the service.
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
the differences with v1 are :
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt; ability to have several writers at the same time.
&lt;li&gt; ability to read/write the block device during a resync
phase.
&lt;li&gt; bugs in log fixed based on Stephen Tweedie's
suggestions.
&lt;li&gt; strip all the fancy mecanisms to acknowledge blocks.
&lt;li&gt; the scope of odr is more clearly defined. (no
quorum/lifemonitor)
&lt;/ul&gt;
